These simple Meatballs with Cheese are prepared with a blend of flavorful spices, fresh herbs, and bread softened in milk. They’re lightly flattened and finished with melted cheese for a rich, satisfying result.
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Minced meat (ground meat) | 500 g |
| Garlic, finely chopped | 1 clove |
| Shallot, finely chopped | 1 |
| Parsley, chopped | 1 tbsp |
| Worcestershire sauce | 1 tsp |
| Tomato paste (canned) | 1 tsp |
| Bread crumbs soaked in milk | About 1/2 cup |
| Grated cheese (mixed into meat) | 2 tbsp |
| Salt, black pepper, paprika, cumin, mixed pepper blend, thyme | To taste |
| Oil (for mixing) | A good drizzle |
In a large mixing bowl, add the 500 g of minced meat along with all the spices, the drizzle of oil, chopped garlic, chopped shallot, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, milk-soaked bread crumbs, and 2 tablespoons of grated cheese. Stir just until everything is evenly blended.
Shape the mixture into balls, then gently press them into slightly flattened patties—similar to mini burgers.
Warm a mixture of oil and butter in a wide skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties until both sides are nicely browned and the meat is cooked through (about 160°F / 71°C internally).
Sprinkle additional grated cheese over the meatballs near the end of cooking. Cover the skillet briefly to allow the cheese to melt. Serve immediately while hot.
